After over 4 weeks of vaping only i went back to analogs. I had to divert funds from my vices to getting the boy's car repaired. I done ok for a day or so. Then i caved in to the nicotine monster and bought a cheap ass pack of analogs. The first one was sooo bad i tossed it out the window after only three drags. That was on Wed, that pack lasted me two days. Since then i have bought two more packs. I haven't been enjoying the taste like i used to and i have been finding myself actually craving a hit of Riskee or 555 high. I have been more self concious (sp) of the tobacco smell on my clothes too.

Hopefully my juice order should be in my mailbox today so i can get back to vaping.

Like a lot of people i'm sure i can step down to a 0nic mix which is my long term goal. I have found a local source of Lorann flavors and have a bottle of blackberry and one of cheesecake sitting at home waiting to be experimented with. Just need to get some VG and i'll be mixing away.

So to answer the original question ......... right now i would end up smoking analogs again. Maybe in 3 months or so it could be a different story.

The I-Inhale might be our first dual purpose device if we can get the formula and method for eliquid perfected. That makes it very handy for quitters in the case of bans because herbal vaporisers aren't banned.

"... vapor does not contain the harmful carcinogens and tars that are found in smoke. This is due to the fact that vaporizing releases the active ingredients at a much lower temperature than the point of combustion so no carbon is burned ... you simply need tobacco and a vaporizer. "

I really hope they don't ban ecigs, I see no reason why they are not harmful to anyone around us! I'll never go back to analogs I hate them now!

That line made me laugh so hard I actually cried a tear as my ecig went flying across the room. Yeah, I know, my mind must be in the psycho gutter this morning.

I'm thinking I may have unintentionally joined the other bunnies in la la land.

Glad to be of service. I like to be on hand to offer relief, lying prostrate and looking up at the stars. Y'know, spent.

How can they ban an electronic device though?
If the parts were to be sold individually, how can they ban an atomizer and a battery?? These themselves do not provide nicotine... OK I can understand they might ban the liquid and cartridges and if that's the case you can carry on making your own liquid (albeit 0 nicotine) and carry on vaping!

Just as if they banned a gun--you would be in violation if you had a barrel laying around or bullets or blanks, its would be the same concept--they can do anything they want--sad state of affairs--Sun

They can ban the device just for the design, "looks a lot like a real cigarette, tus it can encourage people to smoke" this happen in my country and Australia has a similar law, maybe even in the US some similar law is alredy done, maybe we just don't know about it.

Well I will order from china if they do and run the risk of customs etc. I'm not going back to analogues and dying of lung cancer because of the fkn government!

Is this likely to happen in the UK or are we talking about the US here?

If e-cigs were banned I'd go underground and keep vaping... learn to jury-rig a vaporizer and make my own juice. If all else failed I'd probably patch and/or gum it and try to wean myself... but in the end it's very possible I'd end up back on analogs... and I'd probably keep thinking of them as "analogs" for a long time...
